I am able to create a site through the following code.

public class AlfrescoCreateSite //extends BaseAlfrescoSpringTest
{
    private static final String TEST_SITE_PRESET = "testSitePreset";
    //private static final String TEST_SITE_PRESET_2 = "testSitePreset2";
    private static final String TEST_TITLE = "This is my title";

There's two parts to creating a share site.  The first is the repository configuration which is what you have done via the site service,  the second part is to configure share for the new site.   You will find other threads in this forum discussing this.

I guess you are talking about calling the create-site.post.json.js.
How do I call create-site.post.json.js through my java code?

Thanks
Sans.

Hi Carol,
This can be written as a plain java code or as a servlet class.
To use all alfresco related packages you will have to set your classpath to point to SDK AlfrescoEmbedded and SDK AlfrescoRemote projects.
These projects will be available when you download the SDK for alfresco.

Thanks
Sanjay
